Dawson Creek, B.C.- It has been nearly three months since the second threat letter against the ENCANA pipeline company advised there would be a three month break in bombing of the pipelines:

 

 “You have 3 months to convince the residents here and the general public that you will commit to this program meaning that all actions against you will cease for three months from the time of this note. We can all take a summer vacation including your security personnel and the RCMP who have not helped you to date anyway - which was the whole point of the six minor and fully controlled explosions: to let you know that you are indeed vulnerable, can be rendered helpless despite your megafunds, your political influence, craftiness, and deceit in which you trusted.”

 

That three month “vacation” is about to come to a close, and RCMP are advising all in the Toms Lake area to be careful.  It is also nearing the one year anniversary of the first explosion.

 

 “We have no information to suggest that another explosion will occur, but the individual responsible for the previous six has shown that they are willing to commit criminal acts to get their point across,” explains Sgt. Tim Shields, British Columbia RCMP Media Relations Officer. “Our primary concern remains public safety, and as such we are reminding people to be observant and report any suspicious activity to the police.”

 

 “This continues to be a very active investigation on many fronts, and we are continuing to focus on Tomslake and the expansion around the area,” says Sgt. Shields. “We know that the vast majority of people in the area are fully supportive of our efforts, but there remain a few who support the actions of the bomber. We would hope that these people would contact the police and help contribute to the safety of their community, and families. ”

 

It is these people who have not fully cooperated who investigators hope will provide any possible information to them.

 

“We have been very fortunate so far that there have been no serious injuries in the six previous explosions. Any time you have a violent act such as an explosion there is a risk of harming or killing innocent people,” says Sgt. Shields. “We hope that the bomber has had time to reconsider his actions, and will look to non-violent means to discuss the issue of gas exploration. Contact the authorities in a way that you are comfortable with, violence is not the way to solve any issue.”
